Low-speed chase my @$%! Maybe the end of it was. I was home at the time - and happened to be outside, in front of my house, as the “chase” passed. That car and the pursuing officers were traveling no less than 60 - 70 MPH on West Rock Avenue flying past Edgewood School just moments before the children were let out. And I’m not the only one to see this - there were at least a half dozen witnesses on my block alone that were horrified. One might also ask the school Crossing Guard if it was low-speed as he was standing in the street as the cars approached. Believe me, I am all for apprehending criminals, and keeping the streets safe, but this was ridiculous and could have been tragic.

I looked at the crime log, and it looks like the incident occurred at 98 Pine Street.

You are absolutely right Qwerty, how dare those cops chase a felon who just stabbed someone!? What were they thinking!? If you had just been stabbed (or your wife/hubby, child, parent), you would completely understand if they just waved at him as he got away! If your child was bleeding profusely, you would absolutely NOT want the person apprehended! I am right with you....uh huh
